In this notebook we conduct exploratory factor analyses (EFAs) on the datasets for our studies of concepts of mental life, in which each participants judged the various mental capacities of a particular target entity. We analyze datasets for adults and children from each of our five field sites: the US, Ghana, Thailand, China, and Vanuatu.
This notebook contains secondary analyses, parallel to the results presented in the main text, in which we dropped participants who gave the same answer on every trial. _
